Forget the XR650R - it's NOT an overland bike at all.
Forget the NX650 - it's a road bike.
Go for the XR650L - basically a proper off road NX650. Simple, reliable & easy to work on. For £3,000 to £3,500 you could buy one that's had overland type work done to it.
You need to remember that if you buy any STOCK bike, you'll need to spend a fair bit equipping it. Big tanks don't come cheap!
Was there not a recent reply to one of your posts offering an already prepped 650L for sale? If you've missed it, it's worth your time looking again.
